As a child growing up in Washington State, I was blessed to be able to enjoy the beauty of the outdoors while hiking, hunting or fishing with my father and grandfather.
During the 1970's, while on the high school newspaper and annual staffs, I was introduced to photography as an art form. I began as a photographer and progressed from there into the darkroom and finally on to editing. After taking a few years off to raise a family, I returned to photography in 1995.
My photography has taken me to locations as near as my own back yard to as far as Belize. Witnessing the sun breaking over the mountains or setting over the ocean is truly a miracle to see and one that I try to share through my images.
I have chosen to use Canon equipment. Currently in my bag:
EOS 1D MKII
EOS 1DS MKII
Canon 17-40mm f/4.0l
Canon 24-105mm f/4.0l IS
Canon 100mm f/2.8 macro
Canon 70-200mm f/2.8l
Canon 300mm f/2.8l
Canon 1.4x teleconverter
Canon 580EX Flash
I currently reside in Lynnwood, Washington with my wife, Sandy. We have a daughter at home, 2 grown sons and 2 grandchildren.
Please contact me for information on portrait or wedding photography.
Life is good! Enjoy it!
